KuCoin has become the first global cryptocurrency exchange to support Thailand’s landmark G-Token program, the world’s first publicly issued tokenized government bond. The initiative, launched by Thailand’s Ministry of Finance, marks the first time a sovereign bond has been listed on a digital asset exchange, signaling a major step forward in real-world asset (RWA) adoption.
The G-Token short for Government Digital Bond is issued under Thailand’s Public Debt Management Act and combines the trust of sovereign debt with the efficiency of blockchain infrastructure. Unlike cryptocurrencies, the tokens are government-backed instruments with both principal and interest guaranteed by the Ministry of Finance.

Democratizing Bond Market Access
Traditionally, government bonds carried high entry barriers, restricting participation to institutional investors or high-net-worth individuals. The G-Token lowers this threshold, opening up access for retail investors via digital platforms. By using blockchain, the program delivers transparency through immutable records, reduces operational costs in issuance and settlement, and introduces secondary market liquidity.
With this launch, Thailand positions itself at the forefront of financial innovation in Asia, offering a blueprint for other governments exploring blockchain-based debt issuance.
KuCoin’s Strategic Role in the Initiative
KuCoin’s participation comes through a consortium agreement with XSpring Digital, SIX Network, and Krungthai XSpring, alongside its local subsidiary KuCoin Thailand, which is licensed by the Thai SEC. KuCoin Thailand will handle subscription, redemption, and listing services for the G-Token, while KuCoin’s global platform is expected to support trading following regulatory approval.
The exchange will also provide technology advisory, market development, and secondary trading infrastructure to ensure liquidity and international investor participation.
KuCoin CEO BC Wong said the program “sets a global benchmark for RWA adoption,” adding that bridging traditional finance with digital assets is central to the exchange’s mission.
Notably, KuCoin recently launched “Anti-Phishing Month,” a campaign running from August 25 to September 25, 2025, to raise awareness about phishing risks. The initiative provides education and incentives to strengthen user defenses against scams, reinforcing the exchange’s focus on security.
